‘Hawks to Watch

Seahawks to keep an eye on when the Seahawks head into a renovated Arrowhead Stadium:

Deion Branch – The veteran has zero receptions so far this preseason, so the Seahawks plan to give Branch a feature role in the offense on Saturday night. With the emergence this summer of Deon Butler, there are some who feel that Branch is expendable. While that wouldn't come as a surprise, if he can come in at flanker in three-wide sets, catch 4-5 passes for 50-60 yards per game and create space for T.J. Houshmandzadeh and John Carlson, he'd serve a very useful purpose in this offense.

Nick Reed – During an interview with 950-KJR's "Mitch in the Morning" program earlier this week, Seahawks head coach Jim Mora mentioned that they're going to get Reed some playing time against the Chiefs' first-team offense. During that interview, Mora also said that he thinks Reed, who has done nothing but turn heads and make plays this summer, will "be wearing a Seahawk uniform" this season.

Steve Vallos – With Chris Spencer on the shelf, Vallos is the team's starting center for the foreseeable future. Considering how well he has played when given the opportunity, and the importance of continuity along the offensive line, there's a very real possibility that Vallos could be the starter even when Spencer is healthy enough to return.

Aaron Curry & Lawrence Jackson – The last two #1 picks by the Seahawks are coming off groin strains that kept them out of the Broncos game, but are healthy now and could see significant playing time against the Chiefs on Saturday.

Julius Jones – Also held out of the Broncos game, it'll be interesting to see if there's some extra oomph in Jones' carries now that the team has signed Edgerrin James to "complement" him.

First-Team Defense – In addition to watching how Jackson, Curry, and Reed play, all eyes should be on the ‘Hawks first-team defense, which has game-planned for this game. It's still just the preseason, but if this unit plays as poorly as it did against Denver, panic buttons will be pushed.
